Reseñas de la Crítica

‘I’ve always loved Shaw’s writing – the clarity of the prose and the terrific characterisation – but I think The Red Shore is perhaps his best yet’ Ann Cleeves

‘The Red Shore is crime fiction at its very best, a knotty mystery combined with a compelling personal story, set in a beautifully evoked landscape. I can’t wait to read more about Eden Driscoll’ Elly Griffiths

‘Shaw proves, once again, that he is the undisputed king of seaside noir’ Vaseem Khan

‘A gripping and wonderful thriller – and what a treat to know it is the first in a series’ Nicci French

‘William Shaw is yet to write a bad sentence, and The Red Shore continues that remarkable trend. Expertly paced with beautifully drawn characters, William weaves a plot that’s twistier than a cramping snake into the stunning setting of a small Devon fishing town. Highly recommended’ M. W. Craven
